ForeverADog Posted December 27, 2011 Report Share Posted December 27, 2011 I still remember my dad taking me to every home game when I was little and will never forget it, but going to Kentucky? That's on another level!Isn't Rupp connected to a mall? I think I remember always hearing about how neat the mall is set up for gamedays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jake94 Posted December 27, 2011 Report Share Posted December 27, 2011 Good job, Lazeek! Lil zekey will never forget it. My dad took me to Vegas many moons ago to see LU face top 25 UNLV and JR Rider. I will never forget it. Mike Newell was coach and I think we lost 100-75, but it was lots of fun at the Thomas and Mack center seeing the Shark!

Kentucky 89 Lamar 54![/quote]I think you are right...it COULD be brutal. Kentucky plays the type of ball that could really kill us. We have to do a good job handling their press and we have to slow things down by playing great defense. I think we can keep them in the 70's and I agree with Lazeek - 74 -52 Kentucky wins. We will continue to have problems scoring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LamarTech Posted December 29, 2011 Report Share Posted December 29, 2011 We went 0 for 12 on 3 pointers against Ohio State and lose by 20. Had we hit half, we lose by 2 points. So, I say if we hit half our 3s, then the difference in the game is single digits as KU will be looking past us to the big weekend match-up with some other Cardinals (Louisville). Memphis...oh excuse me, KU (Memphis in disguise) starts a lot of freshman and we start 4 seniors...so perhaps ROC's recruits with the help of some real coaching throws a scare into Roc's old boss. Biggest upside (aside from KU cash) is ESPN exposure which should help recruiting. Go Big Red! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But my son and I have been welcomed by the staff and team so well this week. Truly an amazing three day trip. He was asked this morning to sit with the team on the bench during the game. And there were only about 10-15 LU fans, so we all pretty much sat on the row right behind the bench. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfrotunately the two four year starters (Miles and Harper)looked like they were in over there heads, which was dissapointing after they started the season so well. Any contribution from either of them last night and this could have been a 10 point game.Kentucky is big and loaded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
